Exposed Aggregate Finish

Exposed aggregate is a type of finish that involves removing the top layer of concrete after being laid. This creates an inviting look to the surface which is often used for added traction. Common places for exposed aggregate concrete are on walkways, patios, pool decks, driveways and porches. The customer can choose between types of aggregate, river rock being a fairly common and cost effective rock choice. This finish can also be used to add character to retaining walls or other vertical landscaping features. 

Exposed aggregate is a great choice for borders on sidewalks and driveways. If you’re looking for a sleek appearance that provides excellent traction during the winter months, exposed aggregate borders are worth considering.
